                        Hello to all!!!

                        I'm fairly new to modeling, meaning that I've tried it off and on since I was ten but I never really got immersed in it.  That being said, I've always had a fascination with scale models and the intricacy and precision it takes to create a true replica. 

                        My interests include USMC aircraft, more specifically, helicopters, and 410 sprint cars.  I know those two genres are worlds apart but I served in the Marines for short time and I live in Central Pa, and have been going to Williams Grove Speedway since I was two years old. 

                        Sprint Cars would be my main focus if more kits were offered but when I can't find one, I'll work on helicopters.  I'm really hoping to get better at this hobby and build some good kits.
